SECRETS TO GLORIOUS MORNING GLORY MUFFINS


1. Toasting the coconut and walnuts heightens their flavor, and processing them in a food processor until finely ground prevents soggy, stringy coconut and mealy nuts.

2. Pressing the juice out of the shredded apple and pineapple before stirring them into the batter keeps the muffins from being gummy and wet.

3. Reducing the released fruit juice on the stovetop (down from 1 cup to ΒΌ cup) and adding the syrup to the batter provides a bright, fruity flavor without adding too much moisture.
